AC Milan are keeping tabs on Botafogo centre-back Doria as they aim at adding to their defensive options.

The 19 year-old had previously been linked with Juventus but now a whole host of English clubs are interested.

According to Lancenet the Rio de Janeiro outfit are asking for €20 million for the impressive young defender.

Former Milan star Clarence Seedorf has played alongside Doria this season and holds the Brazilian in high regard.

Botafogo’s progress in the Copa Libertadores will be a deciding factor in whether the club can keep their players.

The 6’2 centre-back has been virtually ever-present for his side in the Campeonato Brasileiro.
